Desirae is a beautiful, somewhat shy, and independent cat in need of a new home. Her owners adored her, but they were unable to keep her due to grandchildren having allergies to cats. Desirae prefers a quiet home and she’s been the only pet in her home. She enjoys being with family, especially resting on her favorite blanket or in a comfy lap, watching everything that that’s going on. Desirae’s favorite toys are feathery wands or ones make noises. She’d be perfect older adults or singles looking for a great pet.

Nigel

Age: 2 years old

Breed: Chihuahua

Gender: Male

Nigel has had several homes in his short life. He shouldn’t be around small children in his new home, though kids age 13 and older would be fine. He loves to snuggle, likes many other dogs, pays no attention to cats and is house-trained. As with all Chihuahuas, Nigel is averse to any weather extremes.
